As an Emergency Room nurse, I assess the patient’s status and notify physicians of clinical changes. Act as patient advocate. Coordinates services and treatments. Train and supervise personnel in all areas of patient care and daily procedures. Provide nursing services including medications and injections to patients as directed by the providers. Refer patients to other providers and community health resources; and health instruction to patients following examinations. Monitor patient flow and, in the case of patient overflow, assist health aides in preparation of examination rooms, preparation of patients for exam, and taking of vital signs of patients. I have served on several quality committees to help improve processes or workflow issues in the ER. I have served on staff engagement committees to look for ways to improve morale in the department. I have been and is currently involved in many community outreach programs for many years. These outreach programs include but are not limited to Stop the Bleed Campaign and Car Seat Safety. I am proficient in excel and have experience in creating reports. Once the reports are created, I run the data to use for performance improvement for the department. I work closely with Umatilla County Fire District One with assisting set up of quartarly training.
